To mark its arrival in Australia, McLaren has released new local imagery of the 765LT, taken at ‘Interchange Pavilion’ by Studio Chris Fox at Sydney’s new technology and innovation precinct – South Eveleigh – where edgy, modern innovators and the community come together to forge the ideas of tomorrow.
The vehicle pushes the boundaries of a supercar and it is this ethos that is equally embodied in the South Eveleigh precinct. As the birthplace of Australia’s national rail network in the 19th Century the area is recognised as an important epicentre of transport innovation for Sydney.
In the same way that the 765LT ensures the purest possible connection between driver and car, the precinct is a meeting place where technology pioneers converge. It is their quest for innovation that made the location a perfect embodiment of 765LT which was photographed inside one of the precinct’s new public artwork ‘Interchange Pavilion’ by Studio Chris Fox.
In addition to the arrival of the 765LT, McLaren has also announced that the McLaren Senna Extended Service Contract is now available to purchase in Australia. McLaren Senna owners and prospective buyers will have the option to purchase a policy, which will cover most factory-fitted components against mechanical and electrical failure for up to 12 years. The McLaren Senna Extended Service Contract also includes 24-hour roadside assistance for the duration of cover, providing additional peace of mind and further enhancing the McLaren ownership experience.
The McLaren 765LT is priced from AUD$609,650 plus on-roads.
